An optimistic series! With so many boats for service, how would fear to be on the sea?! I like the Police boat.

Love the colors VP! I am so ready for some ocean smell.

Those are some big bouys. Nice color.

This is an interesting series, VP. I imagine a big port city like Livorno must have to spend a lot of public money on water safety.

We had that weather in April, now we have April weather.

The police must be fast!

Looks very nice!
ps. I am pleased you added "taken in April", because the people looked dressed for more colder days:)
Anyway, enjoy your weekend and the races.
